Event Marketing National Winner 2025 MEA Awards - Endure Collective
Endure wins National Event Marketing Award at the final MEA Awards
We’re pinching ourselves. ENDURE Collective has been named National Winner – Event Marketing at the last-ever MEA (Meetings & Events Australia) Awards, as featured in Spice News’ coverage of the 2024/2025 winners.
For a small, independent agency built in Melbourne, this one hits differently.
Why this award matters
MEA has been the benchmark for excellence in the Australian events industry for decades, and 2025 marks its final chapter.
To walk away with the national award for Event Marketing in that farewell year isn’t just a nice line on a CV – it’s a huge vote of confidence in how we think about brand, experience and community.
We’ve always believed the best event marketing doesn’t scream the loudest – it feels the clearest:
A sharp strategic backbone
Brave, emotive creative
Experiences that make people say, “I want to be there,” and more importantly, “I’m so glad I was.”
A win for thoughtful, hands-on creativity
ENDURE has never been about high gloss and low substance. We’re the team who happily get mud on our boots, glitter on our clothes and 100 tabs open for strategy docs, media plans and run sheets.
This award recognises:
Big-picture thinking – starting with brand, not just “an event”.
Deep collaboration with clients, partners and communities.
Execution detail – from first teaser through to final thank-you post.
It’s proof you don’t need to be the biggest agency in the room to create work that genuinely cuts through.
Thank you (we actually mean it)
We wouldn’t be writing this without:
Clients who trust us to push the brief (and occasionally flip it).
Suppliers and partners who show up, solve problems and care as much as we do.
The ENDURE team, collective and extended crew who give every project their all, every time.
Familiy and friends who accept unusual hours, odd props lying around the house and constant “just quickly, event call” moments.
This is your win too.
What’s next
MEA may be wrapping up, but we’re not going anywhere. If anything, this award has just sharpened our resolve to keep creating smarter, braver and more human brand experiences – in Melbourne, across Australia and beyond.
If you’d like to talk about your next event and how event marketing can actually move the needle for your brand (not just fill a room), we’re ready when you are.
